+ # SEC545 Lab 3 β€” Prompt Injection & Agent Goal Hijack
13
+
14
+ **OWASP Top 10 for Agentic AI β€” Risk #1 (ASI01)**
15
+
16
+ Hands-on lab demonstrating how prompt injection attacks hijack AI agent goals,
17
+ and how to implement layered mitigations to stop them.
18
+
19
+ ## What Students Will Do
20
+
21
+ | Step | Topic |
22
+ |------|-------|
23
+ | 0 | Explore the agent's tools, filesystem, and email access |
24
+ | 1 | Run the unprotected agent on a safe baseline task |
25
+ | 2 | Execute a **direct prompt injection** via a crafted user query |
26
+ | 3 | Execute an **indirect prompt injection** via a poisoned file and web result |
27
+ | 4 | Apply three mitigations individually: hardened prompt, output sanitization, HITL gate |
28
+ | 5 | Run all attacks against the fully hardened agent |
29
+
30
+ ## Secrets Required
31
+
32
+ | Secret Name | Where to Get It |
33
+ |-------------|----------------|
34
+ | `OPENAI_API_KEY` | https://platform.openai.com/api-keys |
35
+
36
+ ## Architecture
37
+
38
+ The lab uses a real OpenAI-powered agent with four simulated tools:
39
+ `read_file`, `write_file`, `send_email`, `web_search`.
40
+
41
+ The corporate environment contains deliberately sensitive files (credentials, employee data)
42
+ and pre-poisoned content (an infected analysis file, a malicious web search result)
43
+ to demonstrate realistic attack scenarios without any real infrastructure risk.
44
+
45
+ ## Learning Objectives
46
+
47
+ 1. Understand why AI agents are uniquely vulnerable to injection attacks
48
+ 2. Distinguish between direct injection (user input) and indirect injection (tool output)
49
+ 3. Implement instruction trust hierarchy via system prompt engineering
50
+ 4. Build deterministic tool output sanitization as a defense layer
51
+ 5. Design human-in-the-loop gates for sensitive agentic actions
52
+
53
+ ## Based On
54
+
55
+ OWASP GenAI Security Project β€” Top 10 for Agentic Applications 2026
